Nice one Trebor. Re maps......., obviously you can't have too many maps so maybe just buy all .....anyway
.
Curiously dash4it.co.uk always have a 40% discount on maps just before the WRT so keep an eye out for that.
Thats only £2,536.08 that's including current
30% discount of £1086.89( RRP £3,622.97).
I'dhold out for further 10% a whopping £362.30.

Not the whole country ya loon!
. Even Stu's GR 'issues' are unlikely to result in one at Cape Wrath

Do I need to get some maps or not thanks again
By all means buy maps because maps are great - each contains a thousand adventures. However, don't feel that you need to if riding with the LHC as a route will be taken care of by John and his elves

since I am not familiar with the terrain and resupply points, I may be interested in the LHC route.
But I'm of some bike-packing/ (read pushing) experience. I don't want to deprive another bikepacking virgin the chance to pop their cherry on the WRT.
(thinks aloud) Are
white socks mandatory?

Have a word with John Dan, I don't know how he is for numbers. Also, an executive decision to make a number of routes available (once GR are released) for a small charitable contribution was made.

Nice one Trebor. Re maps, probably best to wait until Stu sends the grid references out in April yeah that sounds like a good idea

Including cat herders so far we have
9 boys and 3 girls in the LHC group.
I'm sure we had around 20 or so 3 or 4 years ago at the bivi's, so these are more spaces for LHC'ers are welcome
